At the verge of completing my four years at SJEC, I feel extremely delighted to pen down my thoughts and few wonderful moments along my journey in this Department. Motivation and competency development, coupled with academics are the defining characteristics of effectual learning, and this is what I received here. My time in this Department has been an amalgamation of learning and fun with a plethora of extra-curricular activities. Academia dealing with an outcome based approach has enkindled the joy of

innovation and a zeal to accomplish much more beyond classroom learning. Opportunity has been the biggest gift this Department has given me, one that I will forever cherish and be thankful for. Expressing it all in a single phrase, I could say that the ECE Department of SJEC focuses on Excellence with Ceaseless Efforts. Proud to be an ECian...!!

- Jeevitha Lora Rodrigues, Electronics & Communication Engineering

Computer Science and Engineering is a very dynamic branch which nurtured my academic and technical skills. This institution helped me analyze myself and provided a platform to showcase my hidden talents by exhibiting the leadership qualities.

STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

As a student of SJEC, I have wide exposure to the corporate world through expert lecture series, visit to the industries, internships and project work. The Department provides training on both soft and hard skills such as outbound training, SPSS, R-Programming, MS-OFFICE, MS-Excel, and Google suite which is essential for the corporate world. Above all, we have a motivated and experienced faculty team who always encourage us to take part in various competitions to enhance our knowledge and confidence building. The greatest benefit of the MBA program at SJEC is that it makes us industry ready.

- Naik Jyothi Janardhana, MBA

Motivation and skill development along with academics makes a course complete and that is what I got being a part of the Mechanical Engineering Department. The Department has well experienced faculty, who are ever ready to help any student with any problem be it academic or any other.

The students are exposed to the industry through industrial visits which are awesome! Interactive talks with resource persons from the industry broaden

the knowledge of every student. Academics are first but then, there are other fun things. Co-curricular activities like sports, cultural, technical events are always supported by the Department. Being a team member of Team- SJEC racing is a matter of pride. There are many such other clubs which participate in national and international competitions. All competitions are around building mechanisms, what’s better than being a part of Mechanical Engineering.

- Ashley Kevin D’Souza, Mechanical Engineering

It is a great pleasure being a part of SJEC. Peaceful atmosphere, pleasant climate and lush green campus fill the campus with positive energy, making it the best place for study. Here, studies are perfectly balanced with extra-curricular activities for the students to achieve an overall development.

Professors at the Department act as mentors to nurture our creativity and knowledge and ensure that our energy is channelized in the right direction.

MCA is one such Department where our voice is heard and our opinion counts. The most valuable thing, however, is that MCA Department makes the student develop their ability to think for themselves - be it an exam or a lab session or just a lecture, the professors, who have a lot of experience working in their respective fields, impart their knowledge in a way that makes the student think for themselves and figure something out.

Probably, SJEC not only looks after your academic excellence but also makes sure you are industry-ready. At SJEC, students always find themselves in a pool of never ending opportunities! Joining SJEC has undoubtedly been one of the best decisions I have taken.

Whenever I am appreciated for my good work at Cadence Design Systems, where I am currently employed, I realize that it is not just due to my hard work, but it is due to the skills I have gained during my student life at SJEC. The hands-on experience and the guidance given of my teachers has helped me to shape myself to what I am today. It’s been 3 years since I graduated from this beautiful place, a place which prepared me for this practical life and which gave me friends for life. To my fellow juniors all I want to say is - go

chase your dreams! Give your 100% to achieve them. At the same time don’t get disheartened if you fail in your very first attempt. Remember this one important thing “Never take your success to head and never take your failure to heart “. I wish you all the best and hope that our paths cross again.

-Vignesh Aithal, ECE - 2015 Batch Design Engineer at Cadence Design Systems

When I stepped out of SJEC with a Computer Science and Engineering degree and a placement in Microsoft India R&D, many faces loomed large in my mind’s eye. The ever encouraging management, the faculty that keeps pace with emerging technologies, the placement Department that works day in and day out to give students the best of what they deserve, and many more that mere words cannot express. I cannot begin to express how much this institution has impacted the society through the values it imbibes in its students. I hope to always strive to keep the SJEC flag flying high! Always a Proud Josephite.

ALUMNI TESTIMONIALS

SJEC! Well.. What can I possibly say about SJEC? Being a Goan, I was wondering when I had first stepped into this place and as any outsider would have it, was very apprehensive about my studies over here. But now, after 3 years at SJEC, I have to admit that the times I spent in SJEC were amongst the best moments of my life. SJEC and especially the Department of Computer Applications at SJEC has taught all of us a lot and I have been one of the beneficiaries. I must say that the MCA Department brings out the best in an individual and I feel lucky to have had an opportunity in exploring myself. All those experiences are coming to good use at my work life with Decathlon Sports India in Bangalore. All I can say is SJEC rocks! - Shane Steve Pereira, MCA- 2013 Batch
